Global Leadership in Digital Health Solutions
Operating across more than 140 countries, ResMed has established itself as a pioneering force in digital health technology, particularly in treating sleep apnea, COPD, and other chronic conditions [1]. The company’s recent financial performance underscores its growing impact, with quarterly revenue reaching $1.3 billion and demonstrating a remarkable 29% year-over-year growth in earnings per share [2].
Revolutionary Remote Monitoring Capabilities
At the heart of ResMed’s innovation is the AirView platform, a sophisticated system enabling healthcare professionals to remotely monitor patient therapy data. This technology is complemented by the myAir app, which empowers patients with direct access to their health data and personalized coaching [2]. The company’s Digital Health Technology Group, based in Sydney, manages patient health needs across 140+ countries, utilizing cloud-native healthcare solutions to optimize care delivery [3].
Addressing Global Sleep Health Crisis
ResMed’s recent 2025 Global Sleep Survey, collecting data from 30,026 respondents across 13 markets, reveals the pressing need for such technological interventions. The study found that 71% of employed respondents have missed work due to poor sleep, with particularly high rates in India (94%), China (78%), and Singapore (73%) [7]. Dr. Carlos M. Nunez, ResMed’s Chief Medical Officer, emphasizes that ‘Sleep is as vital to health as diet and exercise, yet millions struggle in silence,’ highlighting the critical role of technological solutions in addressing this global health challenge [7].
Future-Forward Healthcare Innovation
Looking ahead, ResMed continues to expand its technological capabilities, with current recruitment focused on cloud computing expertise and digital health innovation [3]. The company’s comprehensive out-of-hospital software platforms are designed to support healthcare professionals and caregivers, enabling more efficient patient care while addressing the growing challenges of healthcare professional shortages [1].
